A den at the front of the home provides the perfect space for a TV room, home office, or quiet retreat. At the rear of the home, an additional flex space can easily serve as another bedroom, office, hobby room, or whatever best suits your needs. Two additional bedrooms provide comfortable accommodations for family and guests, including one with its own ensuite bath. Step outside and discover your own private resort.

The lanai furniture conveys with purchase. A permanent natural gas line is ready for grilling, while the irrigation system and pool are supplied by a separate water meter for added efficiency. Exceptional construction features provide added comfort and peace of mind, including hurricane-rated windows and doors, a whole-home generator, two-zone HVAC system, and tankless, on-demand water heater.
